Blu pressed glass
« on: August 18, 2015, 05:04:43 PM »
Best wishes to all .
I found this little vase a few months ago at a flea market . It ' very difficult to photograph and I will try to describe it.
It is pressed glass with the relief surface that is leaves and lotus flowers . Any surface is densely covered with blue fritta on white glass . The surface is not smooth but slightly rough without being sharp .
Height ca. 13 cm , width at the widest point ca. 10 cm , width at the upper edge 7 cm Weight 400 gr .
No mark and no signature. The object was so dirty that at first I did not realize the pattern on the surface. Please do not forget the flood in Florence and so you can still find objects covered with mud. Is there someone kind enough to give me some information about the origin and the period of the vase?
Thanks in advance
Giulissa
